Alright strange internet people, its Tea Time!
Lets all get together, not post photos of ourselves and actually socialize. Tell me about your problems, tell me about your solutions and successes.
Have something you need to discuss with a random person online whom you don't know and will give you shit advice? I'm here. Lets do this.

thats a nice mug. its really hard to slip and bake ceramic with this kind of impression.
>>24044210
I absolutely love the guy who makes these things. They are glorious creations of righteousness. They are expensive, but if you want a strong, reliable, fuckawesome coffee/tea mug you cannot go wrong.

I'll bite.
To be honest, I go on here with the hopes of finding someone that might understand me for who I truly am, but it's so hard to find a thread to post in, and it seems like nobody lives near me anyways. Oh anon, I have no idea what to do. My dream of making a good friend seems like it will never come true.
>>24044235
huge expectations lead to huge frustrations
>>24044247
While you're right, I can't really take away that aspiration. I guess I'll just be disappointed forever. I mean, by trying to find that special person online, I think I have a better chance than trying irl, so there's that.
>>24044235
I'd say this, /soc/ is a terrible place to try and make meaningful connections with people. I'm not saying it won't happen, it totally can, but the chances are far more slim than you could imagine. This place for the most part is filled with incompetent men and women with serious emotional and social issues.
Stick to tinder and okcupid or something. Meeting people and creating lasting fulfilling relationships take time, its trial and error and there is no way around that.
>>24044271
I tried okcupid, but it seems there is just nobody on okcupid that is looking for the kind of person that I am.
Also, no way am I using tinder, it's shallow af.
>>24044159
I really want to have a platform where I can talk about my stupid ass theories and people actually listen to it.
I know I'm probably not interesting enough and english isn't my first language so I have a stupid ass accent though so I won't make a jewtube channel just so I don't see no one caring.
This is also the story of my life, I want to do so much shit but I never get started because I don't want people to look at me and think "oh wow why the fuck is this dude even trying"

>>24044281
>"jewtube"
I think I know why nobody wants to listen to your theories
>>24044273
In all honesty, I've met and made more healthy friendships/relationships off tinder than anything else. I have an okcupid as a back up, no bullshit. Tinder is pretty decent as long as you can project what it is you're looking for easily.
I mean, meeting people online is a fickle mistress, you gotta keep yourself grounded and criticize your pursuits honestly, if you have unreal expectations then they will never be seen like >>24044247 said.
>>24044281
Well the problem is there will always be someone whos gonna say "oh wow why the fuck is this dude even trying". If you want to do it, then fucking do it. Fact is you're the master of your own destiny, either you do what you want for you or you don't. Also just start a fucking youtube, its not a big deal.
>>24044285
Because I use ironic autism lingo on an autism website? Come on now
>>24044298
I'm actually just scared someone I know will find it and laugh at me. Also I expected to get one reply that says "you're just bitching" and another that says "just do it man fuck haterzz eksdee", but the master of your own destiny is what I really needed to hear thanks mang.
Do you think it's actually viable to do this with a noticably non english speaking accent?
>>24044347
I get your concern and its totally valid, and the whole master of your destiny thing is cheesy, but god damnit its true. I'm a seriously lazy and forgetful fuck. But I'm pretty happy when I just do the shit I want to do, the only problem there is fucking doing it. Look man, if you want to do it then you'll have to fucking do it, and people will ridicule you and make fun, there will be cockfaces like that whereever you go. Doing what makes you happy will of course come with its negatives, but the positives for the most part should out weigh those.
Be a boss, tell people who try to deny you to get fucked, and do whatever you fucking like as you please, other wise life is pretty fucking boring and unfulfilling.
>>24044264
look, i have got really great friends online. I know people all around the country and sometimes i go travelling and visiting them. Some moved to weird countries and im planning on visiting them soon.
You know how it happened? We shared a common passion. Not on a random board, but a specific forum, where we shared daily our thoughts and discoveries. No anons.
Sharing your constructive passions and hobbies is a great way to find good, lifetime friends.
>>24044391
people will connect to you because you generate value to them. It works both ways.
>>24044378
Yeah nigga das some real motivational shit, I'll fulfill the hell out of my dreams!
>proceeds to make the worst youtube channel ever created stuttering and mumbling about flat earth theory and the berensain bears stealing christmas, and creates autistic music that makes beethoven rise from the grave and shoot himself in the ears
But for real I haven't thought of it like "there will always be people from disliking whatever you do". It makes me want to accept it in advance, and I guess it will help once I do.
Thanks tea man, if I ever become the next aristotle I'll let people know where to find you :^)
>>24044449
Oh well, if it is the worst youtube channel that spouts all sorts of silly shit at least you'll have done it. I mean its better then being an armchair nobody I suppose.
>>24044159

I actually will not.
>>24044519
You will: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekb5akW4uqs
>>24044523
Posting the link again is not convincing enough, post it about 83 more times, then we'll see.
>>24044526
Please?

>>24044534
I'd rather not. Thanks though! Drink tea and grow strong anon!
another bump
My life consists of school work, and well depression followed with tons of anxiety. I was never really able to make friends growing up, and it's only gotten worse as I grow older. Now im 19 and I don't really know where to go? I just want some friends that I can relate to, or can at least help me be happy? But that may be took much.
It just seems like every guy I ever meet on here always wants to do something sexual very quickly, and im just not really like that?
I'm just alone I feel like, it's driving me crazy.
>>24044698
What do you mean you don't know where to go? Like physically or where to meet friends?
I'll be totally honest, looking for other people to help make you happy might not be the best objective. I mean if you cannot make yourself happy on a base level then other people won't be able to do that either. That might sound shitty, but its a serious thing. I mean others can help supplement your happiness, but wanting others to make you happy is dangerous.
On another note, most people who browse /soc/ tend to be a deviant of some sort. Sexual interests is a common thread for most people here. But you should be able to find someone whos interested in what you're selling. You gotta keep looking friend.
Its understandable to feel alone, I suffer from depression and have intense feelings of loneliness often. And its quite unwarranted, I'm a married polyamorous man with lots of friends, its just one of those things.
What would your ideal friendship be like?
>>24044698
You sound like a younger female version of me. I have found more work and devotion to a hobby and personal projects to be a suitable panacea, or torniquet, at least.
>>24044730
Both, I dont know where or how to meet people, I have a terrible time interacting and overall communicating with people.
Yeah, you're probably right. I'm juts hoping to meet someone I would feel comfortable around.
I would just like someone who treats me normal, talks to me, and understands why I am a bit weird. Not someone who pressures me into things.
>>24044772
Do you know why you feel that way? I mean is it anxiety or is there another issue?
I'm not trying discourage you or anything, I'm just skeptical.
Thats an understandable desire, and its completely justifiable for you to seek that out.
I tell you what, if you want you can message me on kik if you like. You don't have to show me what you look like or your name or anything. We can just talk about random bullshit if you like.
kik:duckvodka
If not no big deal, just trying to expand your horizons. Maybe look at meetup, or something where you can get into contact with people who have similar interests or something of that nature. There are an infinite amount of things you could do to meet people, figuring them out is the hard part.

Slow board

>Slow board
No one actually uses the catalog.
>>24044869
In that case
>bump
>>24044883
Thank you there friend, these threads don't usually last more than 12 hours max, so bumps are a requirement to keep them alive.
>>24044889
I didn't know that. My apologies to you.
>>24044889
Most of the denizens of this board seem to have little interest in anything that is not related to vanity, sex, drugs, or pornography.
>>24044913
You're good, no big deal. I mean the board usually starts to really slow around this time at night, so this thread will more than likely die once it gets off the front page. But I appreciate the help anon! Have a good night and take care!
>>24044929
Thats absolutely true, I mean I guess those are legitimate threads for this board, but it would be more fun if people didn't mind just shooting the shit more often.
>>24044930
Yeah no worries.
>>24044889
Bump
>>24044942
I only participate in the shooting the shit threads, for the most part. The rate threads don't appeal to me at all, and the threads that are heavily sexualized make me uncomfortable to browse.
>>24044985
Rate threads have to be demoralizing to some degree, haha. I cannot imagine how people post in those day in and out. I enjoy talking to people, thats a good time you know?
>>24045011
Nah, it's nothing like that for me. I don't think having strangers on the Internet assign a numerical value to my face would change my perception of myself in any way, so I don't see the point. Girls flirt with me or tell me I'm attractive often enough for it not to matter to me if I'm objectively unattractive anyway. Still, my voice and charm do way more for me than my face ever could anyway.
>>24045064
That's good, getting wrapped into posting in rate threads has to damage someone psychologically some how is what I mean. But I agree, what the hell can a single photo do to express ones beauty anyways? Mannerisms and emotional go so much further in my opinion.
I don't want to sell you deathsticks,
I want to go home and rethink my life
Surprised thread is still around. Bump
